Wakeham

Well I didn't venture as far as I was hoping too, as light drizzle began to fall as I left the cottage. Instead I sat in the back garden under a bit of shelter and watched the "resident" Robin feeding on the bird seed I put out for it.

After it had a few seeds it flew into the neighbours Buckthorn and began singing (sub-song). A few gardens down another Robin was singing quite loudly!

Other birds noted were: 

6 Herring Gull

Wood Pigeon

2 Collared Dove

1 Blackbird

1 Wren

Magpie

Carrion Crow

The "resident" Robin waiting................

.............for me to put some seeds out.

Here it is again in the neighbours Buckthorn singing very quietly as another individual was singing quite loudly further down the local gardens. NB. You might have to turn the volume up to here "him" singing.

Ted:

Ted wondering why "our" walks are non-existent. Unfortunately I can't take him as he does pull a bit, which is a bit painful for my ribcage. However other family members take him out for his daily walk, so he's not missing out!
